Stars in the Valley....Batik Style!



When someone asks me what my favorite pattern to do is...

This is the one.

 

Stars in the Valley 

by 

Border Creek Station

They are Canadian too! 

This quilt was in a magazine years ago.

I pulled out the pattern just in case.

I needed a quick quilt and gave this one a try! 

I have done it in Reds and in blacks and greys.



After Unboxing 4.0 of the Bali Batiks,

I thought how #20 would look pretty cool in this quilt!



This pattern has you make the components...


The quick way to make HST's


 and Flying geese! 

Square in a square...


Putting the blocks together is fast once all the pieces are assembled! 


This pattern makes a large quilt so I only did half the size! 


The pattern size called for 13 blocks and I only made 8


I got it on the long arm....


Started to play! 


I used my extra pieces to make a simple border


I always panic as to what to put on my quilts....


But really after it is gifted and loved....


Does it really matter???


Now I am really thinking about the possibilities with this pattern!


Let's see what these fabrics can do in this quilt! 


I always say...

Let the fabric do the work!
